Numb second toe

I have a problem with my 2nd toe going numb during a run. It usually starts after about 2 miles. It's weird because it doesn't always bother me, but when it starts, it starts to feel like the front end of my foot has frostbite. Any suggestions?

Re: Numb second toe
Try lacing your shoes by running the laces along the side holes over the highest part of your foot - usually between holes #3 & 4. That relieves pressure on the nerves on the top of your foot while still keeping your shoes on.
